Rimmerworld

Trapped aboard a disintegrating ship, Rimmer abandons his crewmates, taking the only remaining escape pod. As he accelerates towards a nearby wormhole, he discovers the pod has no steering controls.

Classic Dwarf

Rimmer has the opportunity to save his crewmates, but instead chooses to leap heroically into the ship's only escape pod.

Lister comes up with a complex escape plan involving pulleys, disguises, armed combat and lots of derring-do. Kryten suggests they use the teleporter.
